Question: Forces: Reaction forces at A :vec ( F ) A = F A x hat ( i ) + F A y hat ( j

Forces:
Reaction forces at A:vec(F)A=FAxhat(i)+FAyhat(j)+FAzhat(k)
Force from distributed load: vec(F)L=-192hat(k)
Tension force in the rope from D to E: ,vec(F)t=|Ft|(-0.873hat(i)+0.218hat(j)+0.436hat(k))
Moments:
Reaction moments at A: vec(M)A=Mxhat(i)+Mzhat(k)
Also assume the following moment arms:
From A to D:vec(r)AD=-7.2hat(i)+4.8hat(j)
From A to the concentrated force from the distributed load: vec(r)L=-3.5hat(i)+2.8hat(j). Determine the force (in lb) in the rope that goes from D to E. Determine the x, y, and z components of the reaction force (in lb) in the pin joint at point A. Determine the x and z components of the reaction moment (in lb*ft) in the pin joint at point A.
Forces: Reaction forces at A :vec ( F ) A = F A x
